Passport no. appears in visa
By feloniaryan •
Last week, I submitted my passort together w/ the copy of my visa for VISA STAMPING thru DHL. It was returned to me unprocessed because Qatar Embassy requires my passport to be authenticated (maybe because it is old-type GREEN passport), though it will expire in 2015. Since the authentication will take 1 month to process (as informed to me by DFA),I decided to renew my passport instead. The problem is my renewed passport no. (maroon passport) will not be the same with my passport no. appears in my VISA (green passport). What should I do? Would the Embassy still visa-stamp on my new passport?
Just bring your old passport and your news passport with you for when you exit and enter the country. The old passport with your current visa/rp will still be valid. Use the new passport in other countries. The visa / rp in your old passport will be good until your rp expires and you have to get a new one. Trust me, just did it at the airport.
Yup. Just got mine stamped. Just make sure to have all the necessary documents. New passport number won't be a problem.
Just renewed my Euro Passport, took about a week to transfer visa to new passport. Before we didn't bother with this, usually you presented old and new passports together and were allowed to proceed. Probably things have changed. If you are trying to come here get used to it, this is what happens here with such matters, rules are stringently applied, but vary from time to time.
Your company Mandoob knows these things better than QL members. Pass the problem to an expert.
